Beautiful 29,Wow!

Just what I would expect from you, Jim! That rear three quarter view is my favourite - the fadeaway is sparkalicious!  I think you did a great job of tying all the elements together for a completely funky showcar of the era.  Cool bananas!

Cheers

Turned out amazing Jim! I really enjoy following your builds, entertaining, informative, and educational... perfect combo. That mermaid has the best seat in the house! 
 

Cheers, Steve

I’d found these wheels that matched the rears that I’m using nicely - not 100% sure what they’re from:

The 29 turned out great.

I may have missed it, but did anyone ID the kit source for these wheels? Once you got them detailed at the end they looked awesome.

Thanks for all the kind words, everyone!

No sir, they did not...I kept the nicest two aside in case I ever want to cast them though - seeing as I was weathering this thing a little I used the dinged-up ones on the build and saved the best two.  They are cool though, I agree!  I should cast them, and machine some rims so I can make a rear set with a nice deep offset maybe

Yes, a slightly deeper offset for rears would be great. 

I'm guessing something Tom Daniels designed, but hopefully someone will step up with an ID

Superb Jim, keep up the good work!
